EQUIFAX BREACH

Equifax, a leading credit report provider, recently reported a major industry data breach impacting approximately 143 million people. Cybercriminals may have accessed personal information, including Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and some driver’s license numbers. They also stole credit card numbers for about 209,000 people along with dispute documents and personal identifying information for about 182,000 people.

To help you determine if your information has been breached, Equifax has established a dedicated website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com that includes an option to opt in to credit monitoring services offered by Equifax. Learn More about the Equifax breach.
